We want that old-school BF1942 and BF2 experience back more than anything, back when it wasn't all about being the first to unlock the game-breaking M60 + Magnum Ammo or whatever combination, instead of the series taking its current route of "EA's Call of Duty".

 

And as for CoD itself, I can see why people like it, but frankly, the series just isn't my cup of tea, especially after the way it's shaped the modern FPS industry as a whole.

 

By shape, you mean, "HEY!!!! HEY GUYS!! :D Look over here!!  We made a game like Call of Duty, too!!!  :D Come try it".   Translation: "We completely changed our formula that was original and perfect the way it was to try to make more money, but it failed miserably".  Case 'n point: Killzone 3.

I definitely agree - I feel like I spend more time running in BF3 than anything else.  One thing I really dislike about the BF3 maps though is most of the maps are too linear.  BF2 did a better job of providing maps with better avenues to attack from.

BF3 ruined their game when they made it a sequel of BC instead of BF.  It plays just like BC2 but with better graphics and worse maps.  And don't get me started on BF3 Battlelog.  If I ever wanted to throat punch a developer its the one in charge of Battlelog and making the game launch from it.  So many frustrations, re-downloads and re-installs.

 

There are companies out there experimenting with different gameplay.  I'm sure one will come up with a formula to trump CoD and it will be a good day for us gamers when it happens.  Till then though, I feel stuck with CoD.  At least until DICE can pull their head out of their butt and make a true BF2 sequel.
